Full Fact - tweet that clip

TL;DR: Tweets out a small clip of a show (e.g. Prime Ministers Questions) during live factchecking. The media/clip is of the person who makes a claim that is then being checked in the text of the tweet.

...you can now see the clip of the moment they said the claim, ready to be tweeted out. After you press the tweet button it automatically tweets out the clip.

​

Why is this helpful?

Full Fact live factchecks Prime Ministers Questions and BBC Question Time on Twitter. Members of the team tweet out factchecks of the statements politicians and guests make.

If we can add small clips of the politicians or guests actually making the statements we believe the experience for the public would be much nicer!
